Instagram's rival app to Twitter, is now available on Apple and Google's Play in 100 countries - except for the European Union where regulatory concerns have delayed its launch. Despite this, it has already leapfrogged Twitter alternatives BlueSky and Mastodon in the number of active users. “Instagram is where billions of people around the world connect over photos and videos. Our vision with Threads is to take what Instagram does best and expand that to text, creating a positive and creative space to express your ideas,” wrote Meta in a blog post. There are, however, five things to know about Threads. Like Twitter, Threads will allow users to discuss topics daily. Threads will directly port users’ existing Instagram followers and the following list, eliminating the need to build a community from scratch. It allows users to follow and connect directly with their favorite creators and others who love the same things — or build loyal followers to share their ideas, opinions, and creativity with the world. Threads is closely connected with Instagram and will likely experience similar character features of 125 caption characters, 150 characters for Bio, and 30 characters for user name. It may likely not face reading limits but action limits of 500 daily actions.
